...automakers, environmentalists and politicians because it accomplishes two important goals - automobiles that run on fuelcells would not require gasoline and would only emit water. The problem with the technology is that it's many years away...

...hydrogen can be slowly recombined with oxygen in a device known as a fuel cell to produce electricity. Vehicles powered by fuelcells include motorcycles, boats, even airplanes. Hydrogen-fuel-cell cars are currently being tested by Chevrolet...

...the rest stop. If all goes according to plan, five fuelcells, each the size of three car batteries, will be used...distillation process and stored in an offsite tank. The fuelcells will be resupplied with methanol every two or three days...

...years to come, are seeing more customers buy drastically less power when they generate their own with solar panels, fuelcells, or other so-called "distributed generation" technologies.That reduces the need to build big new power plants...

...by recombining the hydrogen and oxygen atoms from a split molecule of water has been around for a long time. Known as fuelcells, these power stations have been used by NASA for decades to power spacecraft. Today, they are also employed as backup...

...more congested today than the thoroughfares leading to and from the Lowe's Motor Speedway. NASCAR mandated smaller fuelcells for all cars racing in the Coca-Cola 600. The tanks will hold 13 1/2 gallons of gas instead of the usual 22. The...

...shuttle's three electricity-generating fuelcells was giving an erratic reading. NASA rules say all three fuelcells must be working to launch, and if...shuttle's three electricity-generating fuelcells since "there's something funny...

...signed an agreement with International FuelCells (IFC), a subsidiary of United...fuel cell system from International FuelCells." Initially, the agreement calls...eliminates polluting air emissions. Fuelcells have been identified by the automotive...

...could be an important step toward developing biological fuelcells that might replace batteries to power cochlear implants...possibility of using them as part of tiny biological fuelcells that could power medical devices - like Sontag's own...

...advantages of hydrogen are that it can be burned efficiently in a fuel cell (although I prefer more research on methanol fuelcells) and that it can be used cleanly, like electricity. Unlike electricity, it is very difficult to transport, and like...
